Inspirational Speaker, Gary Guller, sharing the audience response in Taos, NM to Team Everest.

Five men in wheelchairs and their teammates—representing a range of disabilities—trek 21 days through the high Himalaya. From their departure in the Sherpa village of Lukla, the team will attempt to reach an altitude of over 17,500 feet in one of the most inaccessible regions on earth. A Nepali support team is engaged to help push, pull, and carry members over the rugged, steep terrain. In this part of the world, the altitude and intense cold can stop even the fittest of hikers in their tracks. But if the team reaches Base Camp, expedition leader and amputee, Gary Guller, will make a bid for the summit of Everest.
With stunning footage from the kingdom of Nepal, Team Everest offers a heartwarming story of personal ambition, as it dares us to reach beyond our perceived limitations and explores our unlimited capacity to dream.

Gary Guller: Keynote Speaker in Newport, Rhode Island


Gary’s accomplishments inspired me from the moment I found the website. My thirteen years as the host of a daily, live program for ABC had me reading many a bio and 18,000 interviews later, I am pretty good at sniffing out the real thing. Gary is the real thing and someone to be admired. I think his story; philosophy and attitude will move and inspire all of us.

from Gary... Thank you so much for the hospitality and wonderful experience! You and your team of folks provided the best possible event for me to deliver my best. It was very obvious to me that the delegates were very please with the entire event. You and your team made us all shine!
